The Big 1-0-0-0!

I'm excited and freaked out and just the tiniest bit emotional to announce that today is Design Muse's 1,000th post. Our 1,000th post, people. I've been cheesing all day just thinking about it...in fact, I even brought in cake batter rice krispy treats to work in celebration.

10. Disney Princess Makeovers: I've gone back and laughed at this post dozens of times over the last few years. It's a personal fave, plain and simple.

9. Crafting with Maps: This short series was a lot of fun to put together and really turned out beautifully. Ideas that don't cost much and make a fun statement will always top my list!

8. Vintage Beretta: This post is filled with hilarious pictures of outfits I "designed" when I was a kid. It's ridiculous and laughable but it's always made me smile for a handful of reasons.

7. Gabees Lip Balm: I'm so enamored with my Dad's many "Most Interesting Man In The World" hobbies, so when he named part of his empire after me I was smiley to say the least.

6. My Bedroom and Living Room Makeovers: These particular before and after posts were high points for me for very practical reasons, but even years later I'm still thrilled with how they turned out. It was important for me to learn first hand that a little bit of re-decorating changed more than just my space, it changed my disposition.

5. Best Day Ever: I'm excited to continue this series in the near future because we had such a great time putting together our first post. They're sometimes a challenge to orchestrate but I'm determined to make personal style posts a regular part of Design Muse soon and very soon.

4. Project Pep Talk: This post will always be very close to my heart as it centered around a really special present I made for my partner in crime. It took some time to orchestrate but it was worth every second!

So there you have it! I enjoyed writing (let's be honest...almost) all 1,000 but these 10 have a special place in my heart. I wish I had words to tell you guys how grateful I am for your willingness to keep coming back and allowing me to share my adventures with you. The fact that even one person out there would find what I have to say interesting is so humbling to me. Thanks for showing up and engaging...we've built something pretty cool together, don't you think? Here's to at least 1,000 more!
